so incredibly grateful to the disabled badasses like @CouncillorCaton and @Squarest_Root who fight for things that matter, even as they're personally impacted by the barriers they fight to break down. infinite crip thanks 💕
Replying to @Squarest_Root
Extra special thanks to @CouncillorCaton for putting the motion forward & fighting for accessibility in Guelph, and to everyone who voted for it. I don’t think I’ll breathe easily until everything is finalized but for now I’m excited by this victory for the disabled community!

Maureen is a member of the disabled community in Guelph who needs our help! She has MS like me and this chair would change her life. ADP only covers a portion of assistive devices, and in many cases like this one the remaining balance is insurmountable: gofund.me/4174a13b

cover your cough? that's it? that's your infection prevention measure?? this is insulting lmao
Respiratory illness season is upon us and it's time to revisit the infection prevention measures we know can help keep everyone healthy. Cover your mouth and nose when you cough or sneeze with a tissue or the inside of your elbow 🤧 See more: bit.ly/3Q0fzH1

URGENT! #Guelph
There is an encampment under the Hanlon of unhoused people being displaced that urgently needs some advocacy! Please dm me if that’s something you have space for. They have been living there in structures they built for 4 yrs and are being given mere days to move.

Please be safe to those on campus. Interesting that they say 'DO NOT use the elevators' yet provide no alternative for people who cannot use the stairs 🤔
Evacuation notice for the University of Guelph effective immediately. Stay safe Gryphons

4th review of the AODA by Rich Donovan: “The current experience for many people with disabilities in Ontario is poor. This stems from design flaws in services, products, technology, buildings, infrastructure, careers, processes, and human imagination.” aodaalliance.org/whats-new/p…

Guelph is filled with passionate, caring, generous people & I know that we can get a location if the right person hears about us! Please help us find space, #Guelph! @cityofguelph @CamGuthrie @GToolLibrary @10Carden @CouncillorCaton @DEEPguelph @GuelphBugle @MercuryTribune
The Guelph Access Library is desperately seeking a location to host us! We're otherwise pretty much ready to launch, but the issue of space is being a major barrier. (1/4) #Guelph #CityOfGuelph #Disability #Accessibility

The snow removal accessibility issue needs to be prioritized. It’s ridiculous to expect people with mobility issues to stay indoors due to inadequate sidewalk clearing. Down to the pavement, the full width of the sidewalk, every snowfall. Anything less just isn’t good enough.
So @CouncillorCaton literally came to dig me out of my sidewalk issue here in #guelph @cityofguelph I’m grateful for good friends like this @CamGuthrie We need to do something about sidewalk snow removal for #accessibility

lmao i love this pull-up bar thing's example exercises: pulls ups! sit ups! push ups! dips! dips! the double-dip is made extra funny by the fact that one of the "dips" is clearly just the down part of the push-up 😭😂 instagram.com/p/CnsvWkHpdWa/…

UGDC was so happy to present at the @myNEADS AGM today! Thank you for inviting us to speak and for providing a platform for us to network with other disability groups across Canada. We are excited to continue our community building and advocacy @uofg!

i'm not even immunocompromised, but i am high risk for complications, especially long-covid, due to my disabilities. being left behind by our own community hurts even more than being left behind by everyone else.
i don’t trust the disabled people who stopped wearing masks and left immunocompromised people to die.
